It isn't in the dhcpd man because dhcpd DOES NOT USE THAT FILE! It's the boot scripts (/etc/init.d/dhpcd) that use it. This is common to every Unix/Linux with SYSV-R4 like boot sequence: * Individual boot scripts with start/stop arguments: /etc/init.d (in RedHat, Solaris, Irix) /sbin/init.d (in HPUX) * Sequencing directories for run-levels and order: /etc/rc[S0-6].d (in RedHat, Solaris, Irix) /sbin/rc[S0-6].d (in HPUX) * Config files affecting the boot scripts: /etc/sysconfig (RedHat) /etc/config (Irix, Solaris? [forgot]) /etc/rc.config.d/* (HPUX) Now, since all this SYSV design does not have a manual page.... Maybe we should have a man boot-scripts(8), pointed to by intro(8)..
